Trade Brisk and Exceeding in Volume That

Exceeding That
of Any Previous June in the City's History.
INDIANAPOLIS June 8.
In all departments trade is brisk, and in most
June in former years, and the present salts
factory state of things promises to continue for
some time to come, the basis of improvement
is a healthy one. Grocers report their trade as
booming, the high tone to prices of staple art-
cles increasing rather than diminishing the de-
mand. There is good trade in teas of all
grades. New Japan teas of recent arrival are
on the market The cheaper grades of molasses
are higher on an increasing demand. The rice
market is very firm. and is reported to be ad-
vancng in its tendency South. The market for
spices Is quiet. Refined sugars are in large de-
maud and very firm. Coffees still in a strong
position. The visible supply of Rio coffee is
considerably smaller than a year ago, and there
no likelihood that receipts will be larger this
year from May to September than in the two
previous seasons, when the supply decreased
from 100000 to 100000 bags Prominent
dealers say that working stocks about
as low as it is safe to 60 The daily receipts at
Rio have been small, the average being about
1000 bags Stocks in Rio are 80 900 bags, an in
crease from the previous week there, but the
supply is short in all the principal coffee
kets. The high prices ruling for all kinds of cof-
fee have made demand for various substitutes,
and it is estimated that should the present state
OF the market continue, the consumption of
20 to 80 per cent The visible supply of Rio cof-
fee. including stocks and af1oat for the United
States June 4, was 66S. 1877 bags against COS. 637
bags the same date in 1886, and 1874 488 bags the
same time in 1885 The produce markets are
active, and in most articles a tendency TO lower
prices. New potatoes. new cabbage, green peas
and beans are all coming in more freely. and the
market is dropping naturally. Strawberries are
not so abundant, and there is something of a
stifening up in prices. The wool market is
stronger in tone West than in the East, and
probably good prices are now realized as will
be this clip. Sales of wool in Boston last week
were 2 100. 600 pounds. against .4S6, 500 pounds
for the same time last year. Sales since JAN l
aggregate so. 045, 52S pounds, increase of
1881, 1893 pounds over the same time last year
The local wheat market is active and strong
in tone, and all grades in good demand. Re-
cepts are light, and offerings as we'll. while
corn is dull and little demand except for white
grades for home consumption. Prices rule
steady at slightly reduced quotations Oats in
better demand; offerings light. Track bids on

was not intended for him. He said, how
ever, that he wanted the matter kept quiet
and admonished US to say nothing about lf.
We felt confident that it was an attempt TO
kill him and q we'll nigh successful one, too.
The affair was, Of course, kept quiet, IN COM
pliance with the President's request, After
that the President never rode alone.
Mr.. Nichols then went on to relate the
circumstances of kidnapping conspiracy
which was attempted to be carried out the
next fall. This plan was unknow1ngly frus-
trated by the body guard, whose quarters
were Immediately in front OF the south
porch of the executive mansion, equl-dlstant
between that building and the Treasury,
State, War and Navy Departments. just TO
the east Of the quarters was the guard tent,
whore a portion of the body guard remained
on duty. For reasons then unknown to the
guard. the tent was moved to the west end
of the gravel walk in the rear OF the War
Dapartment Shortly afterward it was
learned by the guard that the very night the
tent was moved plan had been laid to cap
ture the President as he should pass along
the walk and carry him to the house OF one
Green, notorious rebel, on the bank OF the
Potomac back of the White House grounds,
and thence, when the opportunity afforded,
he wss to be carried TO Richmond and held
as hostage. It was always believed that
the moving of the guard tent TO the west
end of the walk frightened the conspirators
and thwarted their design.
At another time, not long before this in
cident, Bourke, the veteran ooachman, who
had served through two administrations at
the White House, was taken sick. 4 stranger
from Baltimore applied for the place and
succeeded in securing it in the absence Of
Bourke, He did not hold the place very
long, however, as he became So domineerinq
and important that he was intolerable.
Bourke was rsinstated, One night, not
long after he was dismissed, the discharged
ooachman was seen snesking about the
stable, which was soon observed to be on
fire. The whole guard was called out, and
by great e1ertions saved the Presidential
coach and team, but Tad Linooln's pony
and Colonel Hays carriage team perished.
1t was believed that q plan had been formed
for this man to fire the stables, and during
the excitement the oonspirators were to rush
into the White House and murder the Presi-
dent. Mr.. Lincoln, however, rushed out
with the rest to she scene of the fire, and
thus frustrated any attempt at assassina-
tion. "What made this appear more evil
dent, said Mr.. Nichols, "was the fact that
after the incsndiary was arrested he pro-
duoed several Witnesses who were employed
at Ford's Theatre, and who testified that he
(the discharged ooachman) was down in
the CITY during the whole evening on which
the fre occurred, These were the persons
who, in my opinion, laid the final conspiracy
that brought Abraham Lincoln to his
grave"

CONSPIRACY ECHOES.

The story of the conspiracy of assassi-
nation of which the great Lincoln was
the victim, is graphically told in Nicolay
and Hays life of the Maryland
resident. This story has brought
the lamentable event prominently
before the public again, and
many interesting "reminiscences of the
ny period during which Lincoln met
BIZ ueath, are finding their way to the
prass. One of the most exciting of these
ech.ss ofaterrible past has just been told
Dy Mr.. John w. Nichols, ex-president of
the Omaha Fire Department, to a reporter
of the Wheeling wv. Va.) Register. The
repor.srsc'ls the story as follows:
"5l.. Nichols statement interested me
somewhat, and asked him to explain. He
then went OF and told me substantially the
fol owing story: In August, 1862, Company
X, One Hundred and Fifth Pennsylvania
Noiunte 5rs, o. which Mr.. Nichols was a
member, was detailed as body guard of
President Lincoln. Up to 1864, owing to
the vigilance Of the guards, Mr.. Lincoln
escaped all attempts at violence. The back
OF the nfederacy was broken, a good feel
ing perveded all Washington, and vigilance
was considerably relaxed. It was then CON
spiracies were hatohed and Confederates
ran the city unmolested. The President
and his family spent the summer months
at the Soldiers Home, about three miles
north of the city, whittier the body guard
accompanied them. 1t was the custom of
the President to remain late at the War De-
partment, and after his work was concluded
ne would ride on horseback out to the Home.
That summer he had persistently refused
an escort, imagining himself perfectly Sc
cure.
One night about the middle of August
Mr.. Nichols was doing sentinel duty at the
large gate TO the grounds of the home.
About III o'clock he heard rife shot, and
shortly aftervard Mr.. Lincoln dashed up to
the gate on horseback. The President was
bareheaded, and as he dismounted he said,
referring to the horse: "He came pretty
near getting away with me, didn't hep He
got the bit IN his teeth before 1 could draw
the rein." Mr.. Nichols asked him where his
hat was, and he replied that somebody had
fired gun on at the foot of the hill, and
that his horse had become scared and jerked
his hat off.
Thinking the affair rather strange" said
MIR. Nichols, "a corporal and myself went
down Che hill to make an investigation. At
the intersection of the driveway and main |
road We found the Presidents hat, q plain |
silk one, and upon examining it we discov-
cred bullet hole through the crown. The |
shot had been fred upward and il was evil |
dent that the person who had fred the shot |
had seoreted himself close by the roadside. |
The next day gave Mr.. Lincoln his hat |
and called his attention to the bullet hole. |
He remarked rather unconoernedly that il |
vas put there by some foolish gunner and |

JOSEPH HowABD's "LIFE OF BEECHER." +"
Joseph Howard, Jr., the widely known
journalist and intimate friend of Henry
Ward Beecher for the past fifty years, is
engaged upon life of the great preacher
and orator, which will no doubt be the
standard work, as Mr.. Howard's intimate
relations with Mr.. Beecher, and his Justly
won popularity as writer, are an assur-
ance of a work of peculiar interest and
value. We learn that the work is to be
brought out by Hubbard Bros, at an
early day, and will no doubt be sold by
